You never got those with wordpress either. Seems like they're going for some kind of hybrid. Trading some of the simplicity of standard static file generators for some of the power of a tool like wordpress.
I quite like the idea.
Nothing to stop them from storing historical versions in the DB, then it wouldn't be much more logic for the site generator to spit out the site at X point in time, or a diff. Whether that's a feature you'd want is another thing.
